Sakib has not bowled 35 overs (minimum criteria used in bowlers list)

can anyone with cricinfo account point to this in the comments section? a lot of comment against him with no real stat. WE ARE TALKING ABOUT SAKIB'S PERFORMANCE IN THIS IPL AND HE HAS THE BEST STAT FOR ALL ROUNDERS!

Great contribution from our hero in all 3 department !!! The unsung hero..Took an outstanding catch, bowled a superb last over to restrict CSK below 200 and played a match turning shot at the crucial time.. That's what you call a perfect all rounder !!

because he didn't bowl 35 overs

But you have to give credit to this boy .. He didn't get many chances to play and neither he was at the limelight throughout but still he managed those stats to bring him at the top of the all rounder table.. That speaks for his consistency..

Thik e to likhse.. that's exactly what happened with Shakib.. KKR never showed proper respect to Shakib the way they show to the foreign players.. They considered playing Shakib only when Lee was miserable... Not a single member of the KKR team thinks Shakib is a world class all rounder.. that's pathetic.. even the commentator says he is a useful cricketer

So there is a picture going around facebook of Shakib and some girl. I don't think its photoshoped looks legit to me. Who knows maybe maybe its his gf. I'm afraid post it here because I don't want it to be like the whole Tamim, Nafeesa and red bull episode

DHAKA: Shakib Al Hasan amused the
Indian Premier League
(IPL) and conquered
the title along with
Kolkata Knight Riders
(KKR), which gradually led his popularity
towards international
arena from the home
periphery.
The world-top cricketer
expressed his feelings while talking to
banglanews in an
exclusive interview
over cell-phone
regarding his IPL
endeavor and playing at Kolkata.
Question (Q): How did
you celebrate the
winning night?
SHAKIB: Everybody has
enjoyed in their own way, especially the
foreign and Indian
cricketers have
surpassed the night
amid lavish ecstasy
and joy. I prefer to stay away from some
events but I have
rejoiced in my own
manner.
Q: How did you sense
while you were raised above head?
SHAKIB: I have not
done anything special
but I tried to fulfill
my job. After the
match they lifted me up as I was in front of
them but I enjoyed the
matter whatever the
reason was.
Q: You said nobody
would sleep tonight and Shah Rukh is going
to be mad. How did you
observe his gala?
SHAKIB: Certainly, he
was very happy. He
must be happier than others as he is the
owner and his team has
won the title after
five years. In fact, he
enjoyed a lot.
Q: Did Shah Rukh congratulate you?
SHAKIB: He appraises
all players equally. He
evaluates equally the
players, performers
and those who have not got the chance to
be in the squad. He
thanked all of us for
the triumph.
Q: Did you feel any
regret for the matches you were not in the
squad even after the
title ship?
SHAKIB: I naturally
feel regret for the
matches I have not played. But it’s a
great honor for me to
be a part of a
champion team. I have
tried my best in those
matches I have got the chance to play.
Q: You got lots of fans
in Kolkata. How do you
feel about your
growing followers
outside Bangladesh? SHAKIB: Well, a plenty
of supporters have
been generated in
Kolkata. From the
beginning while I was
not playing, I heard that they had
demanded to add me in
the best eleven. A lot
of phone calls I have
received while I
returned Kolkata. Followers
congratulated me as
the way they could.
Many journalists have
come for interview. I
have faced them. Still my phone is ringing.
The people of
Pashchimbanga like me
a lot. I feel proud as a
Bangladeshi cricketer.
Q: Sure you have received greetings from
family and friends!
SHAKIB: I usually do
not communicate with
my family with these
types of stuff. They turned informed by
television and
newspapers. Somebody
informed them over
phone. And my
countrymen do not know my cell number
even a few of my close
ones. I think they
might congratulate me
after my return.
Q: You are a successful cricketer in Bangladesh
as you have achieved
numerous landmarks in
your career. You have
finished your second
IPL with the trophy. Do you consider
yourself as the
blessed one?
SHAKIB: Anything
requires luck for
human. The IPL trophy is another milestone
for me. We have to
play lots of matches in
near future and
committed to play
well. The most exiting thing is playing for the
country.
Q: Your two year deal
with KKR has just
ended. Did you hear
anything from the KKR?
SHAKIB: They have not
said anything yet. It
can be happened later.
Besides the IPL auction
draws every year. Q: Congratulation from
banglanews!
SHAKIB: My heartiest
thanks to you. We are
grateful to you for
your support for KKR.Posted via BC Mobile Edition

So Shakib is bringing Iqbal Abdullah along with him to play for Victoria

Abdulla heads to Dhaka, via Kolkata

But Abdulla won't be unpacking his bags and putting his feet up. In fact, he'll be heading straight to Bangladesh after his short visit to Kolkata. The left-arm spinner will be taking part in the Dhaka Premier League for Shakib Al Hasan-led side Victoria which also has players like Tamim Iqbal.

“At least I will get a chance to play 4-5 games and with player like Shakib and Tamim in the side, it will be a good learning experience for me. It will be a 50 overs game and I will get a chance to bat at the top of the order too which will help me gain confidence,” the Mumbai left-arm spinner said.
